My Cartoon character selection for this week is Naruto Uzumaki. A character known for his dedication and ninja skills.
Naruto, as a character, was created by Masashi Kishimoto. Starring in a cartoon called NARUTO. The story happened in another universe, where Naruto dreams of becoming the leader of his village, the Hokage. At a time when other nations are looking for superiority with the help of ninjas with special abilities.
While training to become a powerful ninja, Naruto is faced with a lot of challenging situations and must fight against evil forces.

Drawing Procedure

Step 1 [Preparing the Canvas]

I folded and cut an A3 paper in two halves, and the resulting plain paper was spotless. So I entered my username, today's date and the contest title.

.

Step 2 [Guidelines and structure]

To guide the drawing process, I have the silhouette of a head, shoulder and upper body.

Step 3 [Adding hair]

Then I have to draw in Naruto's hair on the guidelines.

Step 4 [Erasing Guideline Segments]

I erased some of the guideline areas of the head, the area where the finger overlapped on the hair and the shoulder.

Ready for colouring.

Step 5 [Shading, detailing and colouring]

Step 6 [Finishing]

Now the colouring is completed, with blue-white eyes, a yellow face, and orange hair.

It's time to take a selfie
